FOREO Review & User Experience
Even though that quick evening drink turned into a night out that ended with a dubious 3 AM burger at the only open place in town, when we were young, we woke up feeling renewed and glowing. As adolescence fades, we become more aware of how our faces respond to the lifestyle decisions we make. The natural healing processes of the skin begin to slow down.
That is normal and to be expected, and for the longest time in the history of skincare, we just had to accept this fact and deal with the ever-deteriorating skin condition. For the last 50+ years, we’ve envied the women who could afford to reverse aging in clinics by rapidly advancing anti-aging tools and technologies, such as EMS for face, radio frequency, intense red light therapy, and many other anti-aging facial tools and methods reserved for the privileged few.
Creating clinical-intensity handheld devices for professional results at home, the FAQ Swiss brand is democratizing skincare and anti-aging products. The brand is a high-tech nod to the non-invasive rejuvenation process that occurs naturally. It does not upset the equilibrium or require an unnatural intervention; rather, it complements your existing restorative cellular and biomolecular processes.
What is FAQ™ 102?
An advanced version of the basic 101 model and a part of a larger collection including full-facial LED masks. With its revitalizing EMS-Pro, Power-RF, T-SonicTM massage, and LED-Pulse components, this high-frequency wand is a multi-tech, high-end face sculpting tool for a toned and radiant V-shaped complexion. With its sleek, cutting-edge anti-aging device and ultra-hygienic, plush silicone body, it combined the power of multiple clinical machines. The technologies that are highlighted include:
Electrical Muscle Stimulation Professional (EMS-Pro)
creates precise electrical impulses that tone the muscles in particular parts of the face and neck.
Radiofrequency with potential heating, or Power-RF
Heated radiofrequency waves accelerate collagen production to reduce the appearance of fine lines.
LED-light therapy
Narrow beams of pulsing full-spectrum LED light, including red light therapy for face rejuvenation, penetrate deep into the skin to target various common skin needs.
T-Sonic™ pulsations
Relaxing deep massage to melt away stress and boost skin’s microcirculation and radiance.
Anti-Shock System™
A cleverly integrated system that adapts Power-RF and EMS-Pro to your skin for shock-free heat and electrical treatments and optimal comfort and safety. FAQ™ 102 also comes with a fully unlocked “Basic” mode, and you’ll have to finish professional training to learn how to use potent technologies to unlock your “Pro” intensities, making you your own trained aesthetician.
The mode you choose to use will also determine how frequently you can use your device. If you choose the ‘Basic’ mode, you should do it two to three times a week for the first eight weeks, and then two to four times a month to keep the rejuvenating effects going. If you choose to use the device’s maximum power in “Pro” mode, however, it is not advised to use it more than once a week for the first eight weeks, after which you should only use it once or twice a month for maintenance.
While the device transforms your skin from the inside out, FAQ™ Swiss also developed a nourishing and conductive topical primer to target aging signs from the skin’s surface for the best results. Exclusively designed for synergistic effects with FAQ™ devices, FAQ™ P1 is a nutrient-rich primer containing real manuka honey that softens skin and enhances elasticity.

User opinions and experiences
Radiofrequency skin tightening is something I have heard of, but primarily as a cellulite treatment. I was unaware for a long time that RF could also be used to tighten the skin on the face. I suppose you learn these things when you reach your 30s.
The business offered for its employees to test out a new gadget that was on the market. Radiofrequency was my favorite technology, though I have enjoyed all of them. I was initially afraid that it would sting or burn my skin, but after completing the app’s training, I realized that all I needed to do was keep the device moving. I was surprised that the surface did not get as hot, and I enjoyed the intense warmth that RF felt deep within the skin. This is how it feels, as I discovered later when collagen is properly stimulated by radiofrequency skin tightening. The biggest changes I have noticed in the past eight weeks are the fine lines that have begun to form around my eyes and the fading of my (very noticeable) angry elevens (I frown). I’m getting one if they don’t let me keep this one.
When I unpacked, the device and the treatment surface were smaller than I expected. Still, I was consistent for two months straight and even put in calendar reminders. The best way I can describe the RF before and after results is that you are standing there with your normal face, and eight weeks later (I used it on Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday), it appears that everything is more open and fresher when you lie down on your back. The P1 Primer is fantastic, but it would be better if it did not absorb as quickly so I could use the device more easily for longer
Although the app could use some work, after some research I was able to find everything I needed. The EMS-Pro feature is excellent. I expected it to feel like microcurrent toning, but I went to level 5, and it felt like it was hitting the muscle deeper than regular microcurrent. At first, I saw no change and was disappointed, but then, I caught my jawline in the mirror about 6 weeks in and noticed a cleaner, less saggy line. By the time 2 months were done, my whole face seemed firmer, and I got that feeling when you see an old photo of yourself from 2-years ago and notice how fresh her face was.
I’m a woman in my forties, and I started to get serious about preventative skincare in my early twenties. The benefits are evident. However, let’s be honest: time leaves its mark. As I passed 40, my skin had become dull and dehydrated, making the fine lines around my eyes and the wrinkles on my forehead more visible. The first piece of skin tech that found its way to my heart and daily beauty routine was FOREO’s LUNA 3 plus with microcurrent toning pins at the back, but I needed something to hit aging harder, and the Swiss FAQ 102 seemed promising like it covered all I needed at this point in my life.
Initially, I felt a bit intimidated by all this technology, but I was relieved that the FAQ™ Swiss app offers professional training and guided videos to ensure your treatments are safe so you don’t have anything to worry about. I’ve been following the suggestion of pairing with FAQ™ P1 Manuka Honey Primer – slightly sticky in texture, I presume due to the Manuka Honey inside, but an excellent conductive medium, and it smells heavenly.
I incorporate FAQ 102 into my nighttime routine three times a week. Initially, I began with the Basic Mode and slowly ramped up the intensity. Now, I am more confident, so I am using Pro Mode. What truly surprised me was the noticeable difference in my skin tone after just one use. My skin felt instantly softer; the uncomfortable, dry tightness was gone, and it seemed to glow! After a month of regular use, I noticed a significant reduction in the visibility of the wrinkles between my eyebrows and forehead, my skin tone appeared much more uniform, and the skin was noticeably tighter to the point that my friends asked me in whispers what I’ve had done, presuming this change could only come from a clinic.
A few years back, I started to see my mom’s face in the mirror. I used the device for a month and liked the RF function the most; I’ve never felt such a strange warmth so deep in my skin. It sounds scary, but it is enjoyable. I used this one the most frequently, and the red LED, but mainly because it looked cool, I can’t say I felt much happening there. I don’t know if the other treatments contributed, but I saw improvements in fine lines that I had A LOT of. My skin became more uniform, fresher, and brighter overall, and the little brown blotches were all but gone, so that was an unexpected bonus. I think I’m gonna get one for my mom too. Quite expensive, but it will be a birthday, Christmas, and Mother’s Day present all in one.
Conclusion
Designing devices and cosmetics ahead of their time, created for those serious about skincare, the FAQ™ Swiss stands for concentrated power, professional training, and personalized treatment. The FAQ™ 100 collection offers the most EMS and RF intensities and LED light colors on the market. It respects that one size does not fit all – it never has. The future is yours, and you choose what it looks like. Ask the right questions, stay beautiful, and enjoy living in your skin.
Seven Methods for Unclogging Pore Chores
Did you know that an adult has around 5 million pores all over the body, except for the palms and the soles of the feet? Your body produces sebum, or oil, which is transferred to the skin’s surface through microscopic holes called pores. It’s extremely common for pores to become clogged for several reasons – excess oil resulting from hormonal changes, dry skin, a buildup of dead skin cells, or dirt and oil becoming stuck beneath the surface. Although they can occur anywhere on the body, clogged pores are most frequently found on the face.
When the skin closes over the top of a clogged pore, you get a whitehead/pimple – a closed comedone, and when the clogged pore is open and exposed to the air, you get a blackhead – an open comedone. Although there are numerous methods for clearing clogged pores, we have looked at seven so you can minimize them with the least amount of work and achieve the best possible results.
1. Strips of pores
Peeling off a pore strip and looking at all the debris you just removed from your face has a strangely satisfying effect. However, pore strip efficacy is much less satisfying. Water-activated ingredients found in pore strips stick to the outermost layers of debris, oil, and dead skin cells. Your skin’s surface is primarily responsible for the amazing display of debris on a used strip. So, while they’re undeniably fun and cost-effective, pore strips are not the best long-term solution for eliminating clogged pores.
2. Masks made of clay
Where sheet masks lock moisture in, clay masks soak up excess oil to clean out pores. A fantastic product designed to remove blackheads is KIWI™ Active Pore & Blackhead Mask. This mask softens skin and removes obstinate impurities that have accumulated and solidified in your pores over time with its creamy formula, which is rich in detoxifying clays and a powerful plant oil complex.
With 98% natural ingredients, it is easy to apply and rinse. It is also vegan, cruelty-free, fragrance-free, and appropriate for all skin types. The ideal pre-use step for the KIWITM Blackhead Remover Pore Vacuum device is applying the mask.
3. Pore Vacuum Device
After the KIWI™ Active Pore & Blackhead Mask has worked its magic, you should continue the treatment with KIWI™ Blackhead Remover Pore Vacuum device. The device extracts impurities from deep within pores to make them appear smaller and also reduces wrinkles and age spots. Its T-Sonic™ massage temporarily dilates pores while perfectly calibrated vacuum suction gently yet effectively extracts excess oil and impurities from deep within. In addition, the device exfoliates dead skin cells and encourages healthy skin renewal with its Adamas diamond tips.
4. Scrubs
Choose a scrub with acne-fighting ingredients like salicylic acid. Exfoliators help remove the top layer of dead skin cells, dirt, and oil, and salicylic acid helps draw out impurities from deep within clogged pores. But don’t go overboard trying to see results faster; you can damage your skin by scrubbing too hard or too often. Scrubs are a once-a-week-only method.
5. Extraction Tools
Without the need for your fingers, a comedone extractor removes clogged pores with precision. The flat loop aids in the removal of blackheads, while the small loop targets whiteheads. It is undeniably effective, but the technique can be challenging to master. You might do more harm than good if done wrong, leaving scars or forcing impurities deeper into the pore. In other words, do your research before choosing this path.
6. Brush for Cleaning the Face
Include a sonic face brush in your cleansing regimen to prevent clogged pores in the first place. A fantastic solution is the LUNA™ 4 facial cleansing device with velvety-soft silicone touchpoints and T-Sonic™ pulsations to exfoliate dead skin cells and lift away impurities that can clog your pores. 99% of oil, dirt, and makeup residue can be eliminated, according to clinical research. Additionally, LUNA™ 4 is mild enough to use twice daily and encourages lymphatic drainage, circulation, and the absorption of active ingredients.
7. Expert Facial
It should be a requirement of your regimen to see a professional to remove debris from clogged pores. They are skilled at removing blackheads without causing harm to the surrounding skin while you unwind to calming spa music.
FOREO PEACH 2 REVIEW: Users express their candid thoughts
Ever since FOREO first appeared on the Stockholm skyline in 2013, the company has been firmly convinced that even modest, well-thought-out adjustments to everyday routines can lead to significant changes. Given that your face has muscles.
Why should masking take twenty minutes, or why would exercise be limited to the body? Similarly, they have questioned why IPL should be so time-consuming, why it should cause discomfort, and why the treatment window is so short for such a large device. So, some rolled up sleeves and research later, PEACH™ 2 advanced IPL hair removal device hit the market and glided into legend in a flash.

FOREO PEACH Reviews
FOREO is an advocate of simple enhancements. They will try something if it is ergonomic, user-friendly, beautifully designed, made of only the best materials, and genuinely helpful. They will also give it to their staff to test out and see if they have any suggestions for how to make it better for the end user. What are the opinions of PEACH™ 2 reviews when things get messy in real life?
I am not a fan of the “beauty is pain” story. My threshold for discomfort is really low – this is why I stick to razors, but the idea of shaving for the rest of my life started to feel like a chore and a burden. Convinced by my colleague that IPL would not hurt at all and that it’s a great long-term solution, I agreed to try. I liked how the device follows the curve of my arms and legs as the head is movable – it’s really quick and easy to use. Bottom line – I did my 12 weeks and got out a razor only to prep for each PEACH™ 2 treatment. It is worth it.
My skin tone is a bit darker due to my Italian ancestry, so I was not convinced an IPL device would work, as they have disappointed me before. My hair is not as dark or thick but is stubborn and grows back faster than expected, no matter what I do. I’ve just done week 8 (out of 12) and have done five rounds with PEACH™ 2.
I must say I’m impressed. I see definite thinning, and it’s growing back slower and slower each time. In addition, the window is so big and the flash is so quick that I could finish my arms and legs in less than five minutes. it was very easy to use, but the treatment window could get very hot if you use it on a high setting and don’t pause in between areas. I therefore give it a thumbs up and suggest that you take a break every few minutes.
I will be a Chewbacca in a few months if I do not do anything to control my body hair. My beautiful wife has agreed to (marry me and) take care of the hairy mess on my neck, back, and these weird shoulder hairs that stick out of T-shirts, but it has been getting worse as I get older. Naturally, I have attempted shaving, but it results in a full back stubble that protrudes from beneath a shirt. The laser is beyond my budget, and I have only ever had my hair waxed once and will never do it again because I am so hairy.
After two treatments, I could already see the results, and I completed the entire 12-week course. PEACH™ 2 IPL before and after was quite remarkable for me, removing about 85-90% of the hair. I am not sure if it is because I was an excellent IPL candidate – A guy with dark, strong hair the device easily recognizes – or if it works like this for everyone. In any case, this is something I would suggest to all the uncomfortable hairy men who would never again want to approach a waxing strip.
I followed the FOREO PEACH™ 2 hair removal device‘s instructions to a T and was surprised to find out that I don’t need sunglasses as there is silicone protection against the rim, and the device will not flash until in contact with the skin. It took me four weeks to notice noticeable thinning on my legs, underarms, and forearms—much sooner than I had anticipated. If you use the device on the highest setting, like I did on my legs, the flash window gets hot. If you lift it away from the skin to avoid burning yourself, it will not flash. That is the only thing I would have to say.
However, I have discovered a quick solution: decreasing the intensity momentarily or allowing the window to cool for a minute or two before continuing. Despite the cooling periods, I finished the entire body in roughly fifteen minutes, whereas my previous IPL device required up to an hour for a single leg because you had to set it down, wait for it to flash, and then move on to the next area. My favorite feature of FOREO IPL, in my opinion, is the time-saving feature that allows you to simply hold the button and move over the skin while it flashes.
The device: FOREO PEACH™ 2 + PEACH Cooling Prep Gel
The aim is to remove hair with IPL.
Time spent testing: 12 weeks
Frequency of treatment: Weekly
Areas tested: upper lip, armpits, and entire legs
Level of intensity: began at 1 and ended at 4.
Skin and hair tone: medium-dark hair, light skin
- One-month check-in: I have coarse, dark hair. It has become much softer and is beginning to thin out all over after four weeks.
- Check-in after two months: Bald spots are starting to show, and the few hairs that do emerge are sparse.
- Three-month check-in: I was not expecting this efficacy. Although the last few months have shown me that it is effective, I did not anticipate being almost hair-free. Now and then a hair appears here and there, and I simply use a tweezer to remove it.
The general impression of the device: Surprisingly, there was no pain, and at first, I wanted to quit as I couldn’t tell if anything was happening, but the IPL gel hydrated my skin well. It is incredibly well-made, comfortable to hold, and has a long handle that allows you to reach the back of your legs without bending.
